Forget all those arguments about which system is the most powerful. Instead revel in the fact that GameCube is from Nintendo, still the world's best at creating imaginative arcade, action and adventure games. The GameCube more than holds its own against rivals, with 485MHz custom power PC processor, 40Mb of main memory, a custom CD-style drive, custom graphics chip, and an internal architecture that ensures graphically detailed scenes don't suffer bottleneck slowdowns as on other systems. If you can think of an advanced visual trick, chances are the GameCube can handle it, from bump mapping to real-time shadowing, to ridiculously high polygon counts!
